Now I'am reciving a hundreds of information: TP> nfs server not responding TP> nfs server is alive again I started getting these recently as well. My workstation tends to just lock up for a few minutes then resume where it left off. I can run many things that don't require my home directory during these times (home dir is NFS mounted), and tcpdump shows some traffic to the ethernet. Netstat shows nothing blocked for send/receive most of the time this happens. After a while, I see a big flurry of NFS traffic, and then it just continues like nothing is wrong. I can ping the NFS server but have severe packet loss, and nslookups using that same machine as the DNS server don't respond. The only error logged is nfs server not responding. It only seems to happen when I'm doing something big like make buildworld or "make readmes" in /usr/ports. The buildworld uses the NFS server for /usr/obj, but /usr/ports is totally local to this machine, which makes it confusing that NFS would be involved. If the machine is just running XEmacs and other desktop crud, it never has the NFS server problems. I never had this problem prior to recent 4.1-S builds (about two weeks). -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Vivek Khera, Ph.D. Khera Communications, Inc.
